Without housing projects, people would be homeless.

Not voting Jill but also not voting mainstream party but: IMO we will never get real change until someone is brave enough to act. I'm tired of Democrats and Republicans make me sick. We need better.

I watched more of the Angela Rye nonsense and yo, if Jill Stein were so bad and so wrong, why did she (Rye) need to weaponize identity politics and talk over her the entire time in order to shut her down?

imo he knows what he's doing. he WANTS the migrant communities he talks shit about to be harmed

I love Kitty!

you're right re: her not running for anything other than President. I don't see how the GP is shady though. I just feel like AOC is doing too much. Especially since AOC herself used a non-mainstream political organization to get into power (the Democratic Socialists of America) then abandoned DSA when they became no longer politically useful to her.

This documentary should be available for streaming next year. I hope it comes out ASAP. https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/movies/movie-reviews/im-your-venus-review-1235931876/

She didn't run for President this year bc she wanted to. She ran bc both Howie Hawkins and Dr. Cornel West didn't want to run (at least, in West's case, run for the Green Party). The Green Party runs candidates EVERY election for EVERY position it can. In my state (PA), it runs for every position. Democrats go out of their way to edge them out. They know the Greens can be a viable threat to them if given room to grow.

it was clever but infuriates me. Democrats go out of their way to sabotage the efforts to do exactly that. They're doing it in Georgia RIGHT NOW, for example.

fixed that

Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez - who was a progressive but became a centrist AIPAC simp - attacked Jill Stein on Twitter. Now I'm not voting Jill any more but I couldn't imagine a more hypocritical person to attack her.

noooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo i love you omg

Trump honestly believes he won the debate. I'm HOWLING.

I feel like you need to put more nuance on that. People DID try. America's actions in the Korean peninsula created the situation we're in today. People can't reunify the DPRK and the ROK without obliterating them both (economically, politically, etc.) because America set it up to be that way. (It didn't help that the West did horrible things like using biological weapons there and engaging in warfare against civilians.) I don't think Palestine is in the same situation. To get Iran to stop interfering in Palestine and the surrounding areas, America would need to stop. If America stopped, I don't think Iran would continue because it takes so much out of them to interfere on their end.

Haitians are not doing that. Don't believe in racist lies. Also: if y'all want Haitians out of your country, stop interfering in Haitian government.

I thought most people just voted whatever party they supported for president. (Like that if they voted Democrat for pres, they picked it down ticket.)

I realize I'm a third party voter but like...how do you be undecided this far in an election cycle? I may not be interested in either, but I know damn well Trump is the devil.

I don't like either of them but I do love Kamala crushing him.

good point. i hope, though, this leads to a multi-party system. meanwhile lana del rey is dating queerphobic, racist Trump stans. sigh.

I asked bc I checked Twitter first x_x

is this real?

I remember when Obama won the first time. There were professional talking heads saying his victory would lead to Republicans becoming "like" a third party (in other words, that Republicans would fall). They genuinely believed that. yet in 2012, they (Republicans) had a strong resurgence. I have no hope that the Republicans will decline again. Even when they lose, they become more right-wing and more reactionary and get more people.

I didn't say that. I said that I want the peoples of Palestine and "Israel" to come together to attempt a single state that respects all ethnicities and religions. Israel will fall at some point, like Rhodesia did.

IMO the major problem (well, one of many) with the American system is that nobody - Democrat or Republican - can truly achieve anything they want bc of the lack of time they're given. Even if a party wins two terms, it's still not enough time to do what your party wants. And perhaps they like that way, but I wouldn't.

HELP: i'm dying attempting it is better than permitting an ethnostate the right to exist.
